    Abstract: Patients with previous CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy have a prolonged vulnerability to viral infections. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has a great impact and has previously been shown to cause high mortality in this population. Until now, real-world data on the impact of vaccination and treatment on patients with COVID-19 after CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy are lacking. Therefore, this multicenter, retrospective study was conducted with data from the EPICOVIDEHA survey. Sixty-four patients were identified. The overall mortality caused by COVID-19 was 31%. Patients infected with the Omicron variant had a significantly lower risk of death due to COVID-19 compared with patients infected with previous variants (7% vs 58% [P = .012]). Twenty-six patients were vaccinated at the time of the COVID-19 diagnosis. Two vaccinations showed a marked but unsignificant reduction in the risk of COVID-19–caused mortality (33.3% vs 14.2% [P = .379] ). In addition, the course of the disease appears milder with less frequent intensive care unit admissions (39% vs 14% [P = .054]) and a shorter duration of hospitalization (7 vs 27.5 days [P = .022] ). Of the available treatment options, only monoclonal antibodies seemed to be effective at reducing mortality from 32% to 0% (P = .036). We conclude that survival rates of CAR T-cell recipients with COVID-19 improved over time and that the combination of prior vaccination and monoclonal antibody treatment significantly reduces their risk of death. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT04733729.

    Abstract: In a Plenary Paper, Mittelman and colleagues assess the relative clinical efficacy of mRNA vaccination on COVID-19 disease incidence and outcomes in patients with hematologic malignancies compared with healthy matched controls. This population-based study from Israel links prior observations of poor serologic responses to vaccination to higher risk for breakthrough infection, hospitalization, and death in patients with blood cancer, especially those on active antineoplastic therapy. In an accompanying Letter to Blood, Pagano et al provide supportive data using a multination survey approach to capture outcomes for COVID-19 in vaccinated patients with hematologic neoplasms. They also emphasize the higher risk among patients with lymphoid malignancies. Together, these findings argue for both continued deployment of booster programs and ongoing public health guidance for this vulnerable group.

    Abstract: BACKGROUND: Despite the excellent prognostic of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients since the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), approximately 50% of patients that are treated with TKIs will discontinue first line treatment due to lack of efficacy or intolerance. Once patients need a second line treatment, a considerable proportion of patients will need third or even fourth line therapy during further evolution. At this moment, there is a lack of data about real benefit of this group of patients. We have recently published our experience of 30 CML patients treated with bosutinib in 4th line. We present an update of the study where we have increased the number of patients, and the follow-up. The aim of this study is to present safety and efficacy data CML chronic phase patients treated with bosutinib in 4th line. METHODS: We have collected data from 59 CML patients treated with bosutinib in 4th line after resistance or intolerance to IM, NI and DA. 51 patients have been treated under the Spanish compassionate use program (36 centers) and 10 patients were treated in a single institution from United Kingdom. Median age of patients at diagnosis was 53 years. The percentage of low, intermediate and high risk Sokal groups were 47%, 37% and 16%. Median time TKIs exposure before bosutinib was 9 years. The most common indication (30/59) was intolerant to DA and NI. Patients' dispositions and main line characteristics are shown in table 1. RESULTS: Median follow-up was 14.3 months. All patients started bosutinib at 500mg/d, median dose of was 450mg/d. Overall probabilities to either achieve or maintain previous response were 96% (57/59), 62% (37/59), 40% (24/59) and 17% (10/59) for complete hematological response (CHR), complete cytogenetic response (CCyR), major molecular response (MMR) and MR4.5 respectively. However, probabilities to obtain responses (in patients without response evaluated at baseline) were 27% (7/26), 26% (12/45) and 12% (7/55) for CCyR, MMR and MR4.5. As expected, probabilities to obtain CCyR were lower for patients resistant to DA and NI patients than for patients intolerant to DA and NI (8% VS 44%). Event free survival (EFS) and progression free survival (PFS) probabilities were 50% and 83% by 27 month. Treatment was discontinued in 20/58 (34%), most frequent reasons being adverse events 9/59(15%), lack of efficacy 5/59 (8.5%), disease progression 2/59 (3.4%) and death 1/59 (1.7%). Two patients discontinued due to stem cell transplantation. The adverse events that led to treatment discontinuation were pleural effusion (3), diarrhea (2), rash, renal impairment, auricular fibrillation and liver enzyme elevation one patient each. Overall, bosutinib was well tolerated. Grade 3-4 hematological toxicities were 3%, 6% and 6% for anemia, thromboctytopenia and neutropenia. Most common non hematological side effects were diarrhea (39%, nauseas 13% and liver alterations 14% and pleural effusion 14%. CONCLUSIONS: Little is known about the therapeutic role of Bosutinib in 4th line. The series presented here is, to our knowledge, the largest being presented. Bosutinib seems to be an appropriate treatment option for patients resistant or intolerant to three prior TKIs. Table 1.

    Abstract: INTRODUCTION Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia (s-AML) evolves from a previous hematopoietic clonal disease such as Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS/AML), myeloproliferative neoplasia (NPM/AML), medullary insufficiencies - aplastic anemia - (AA/AML) or exposure to chemo or radiotherapy (t-AML). The objective of this work is to describe and highlight the demographic, pathophysiologic and clinical-therapeutic characteristics of s-AML patients compared with p-AML. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study based on the casuistry from 34 reference centers in Latin America during a period of 10 years (JAN10'-MAY19'). Patients ≥18 years old with primary AML, excluding the promyelocytic subtype (p-AML), and s-AML were admitted. Age, gender, performance status, comorbidity, cytogenetics, mutations, AML subtypes, extramedullary compromise, treatments and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. Statistically, Graph Pad Prism version 5.00 and, SPSS version 17 were used. RESULTS One thousand eleven patients with newly diagnosed AML were recruited, 693 (68.5%) corresponded to p-AML and 318 (31.5%) to s-AML. The demographic differences between p-AML and s-AML are shown on Table 1. Subtypes of s-AML: t-AML (18.5%), MDS/AML (58.2%), NMP/AML (13.5%), AA/AML (5.7%) and others s-AML (4.1%). Global median age was 58 years (R 18-93) and male 52%. Extramedullary compromise in CNS (3.2%) and other organs (5.5%). Seven hundred ninety-three cytogenetic studies were evaluable (based on MRC classification): High (22.3%), Intermediate (68.3%) and Low Risk (9.3%). FLT3 mutation was more frequently found in p-AML. In s-AML, the multivariate study showed short overall survival associated with ECOG ≥2 (HR:2.0), white blood count ≥ 50x109/L at diagnosis (HR:1.9), poor risk karyotype (HR:1.6) and age over 60 years (HR:1.5). At least, 883 patients received treatment (Table 2). During this study period, 211 patients (21%) were transplanted; 49 (23%) were s-AML; histoidentical related donor (46%), haploidentical (39%), non-related (8%) and autologous (7%). The median survival for all AML was 11.0 months with a statistically significant difference in favor of the p-AML (Figure 1). CONCLUSION Performance status (by ECOG ≥2), age ≥60, level of leukocytes a ≥50x109/L, poor risk karyotype and s-AML subtype at diagnosis had a significant worse impact on overall survival. Most patients with s-AML came from MDS, they were older and their incidence increased as the population aged. They presented more comorbidities and worse performance status. Undoubtedly, our findings showed that s-AML is a distinct high risk subset of myeloid disorder with adverse prognosis and represents a therapeutic challenge. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

    Abstract: Monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (MBL) indicates the presence of less than 5 × 109/L circulating monoclonal B cells in otherwise healthy subjects. Recently, it has been reported that circulating chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)–like B cells can be detected using 4- or 5-multicolor flow cytometry in 5% to 7% of adults with normal lymphocyte counts. We investigated the frequency of circulating monoclonal B cells in 608 healthy subjects older than 40 years with normal blood counts, using a highly sensitive 8-color flow cytometry approach and systematic screening for total PB leukocyte count higher than 5 × 106. We show that the frequency of PB monoclonal B cells is markedly higher than previously reported (12% for CLL-like B cells, found at frequencies of 0.17 ± 0.13 × 109 cells/L), the incidence progressively increasing with age. Most cases (62%) showed clonal B-cell levels below the maximum sensitivity of the techniques described by others ( 〈 0.01%), supporting the notion that detection of MBL may largely depend on the sensitivity of the flow cytometry approach used.
